Omicron chaos: Boris Johnson insists 'Christmas should go ahead as normal'

#BorisJohnson #BorisJohnsonChristmas #Boris #UKnews #Omicron #Christmas Omicron chaos: Boris Johnson is facing questions over Downing Street Christmas parties during last year's winter lockdown, but the Prime Minister insisted that he wanted Britons to enjoy Christmas as 'normally as possible' this year, despite Omicron variant fears. But Professor Peter Openshaw, one of No10's scientific advisers, broke ranks, saying he 'wouldn't feel safe' going to a party. He said the chances of getting infected at a festive gathering were already 'too high' before the emergence of the super-mutant variant. Meanwhile, NHS bosses revealed Britain's accelerated booster programme to protect against the Omicron Covid variant will not start for another nine days, with pressure mounting on the goal to reach all adults by the end of January.
